Breast Cancer and Folic Acid

Dr. Walter C. Willett, a distinguished nutritionist at the Harvard
School of Public Health, observes that more than one drink per day
appears to raise the risk of breast cancer. However, he points out
that 400 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid -- the amount typically
found in a multivitamin -- appears to offset this risk in women
who drink moderately.
